Maida Ester

Maida, who is 52 years old, lives in her own house with her family group. She is a woman who is hard-working and responsible so that her family doesn't lack what is necessary for subsistence. Now she has been working for five years selling food near her home, close to a zone with a lot of traffic. She has a lot of regular customers, since she provides a plate of food at a very good price. Maida wants to enlarge her stall, that is, to buy tables and chairs and more basic ingredients to vary her menu, such as beans, meats, rice, chicken, vegetables, etc. She will buy everything wholesale and will have a little more income, but she doesn't have enough income to make this investment. This is why she is applying for a loan to buy the items listed and thus obtain better earnings to give her son what is needed without any limitation.
